Samuel wrote down the three answers and crossed two out. “Harumi would kill me if we went to a club, and restaurants are kinda small… she’s afraid of ballrooms though, so let’s keep that in mind…” he paused glancing at Raidon before smiling, happy with himself. “Don’t worry Raidon, the party is mostly for the other guys at the party. Not for you. You get the wedding, we get the drinks!” he said. He sat a bit excited for a bit remembering the last time he’d ever done something like this. “Or you know, we could always have a really awesome time by just going up and talking about you… that’s always fun too…” he said, sneaking it on the paper. “Tadashi! Quick name three things you’d never do in public!” he said, more interested in playing around now. The had time. Shopping always took a lot of time. Harumi blinked as Yuffie escaped Lillie’s grasp to fetch her chocobo. She woke him up and dragged him into the carriage where Harumi and Lillie waited. “So, we’re going dress shopping right??” Harumi asked. It was the only thing she was really focused on at the moment. Yuffie got inside and sat on Potatoe who fit on the floor with a puff of yellow feathers. “This is so cool, I’ve never been too far outside of the castle…” she said softly. Yuffie smiled a bit mischievously. “See, you already sound like a princess! What’s happened to your training and bad attitude?” Yuffie whined, exaggerating a bit as she went along. Harumi smiled at her before ignoring her to talk to Lillie.

Raidon nodded slowly, "Uh huh... right." He said making notes of that.. "I'm sure there's another place we can have it here in the castle.." He suggested as Samuel was playing around with Tadashi's knowledge, he was keen, "Hmm... acting suspicious, doing anything embarasing, annnd.. walking into someone.. for fun." He knew they were mediocre answers, but they were the first things to pop into his mind.
Lillie dragged Harumi into the carraige but was relieved to find Yuffie was right behind them. She nodded to her question, "Yup dresses and any accessories that might be needed. Now.. colors will be determined when we actally see the dresses." She smiled as she flet the cart moving forward she had already told the driver where to. They would hit the highest priced places and shop around to find the perfect match. She giggled, "I remember that Harumi, though whenever you were with Raidon it would somehow disappear.. though the stubborness would remain." She grinned, "But whose to blaim for that? A girl needs her dignity."

“Great, but we should go more indebt. I’m making a list of things we should make Raidon do.” He chuckled evilly before turning to Raidon calmly. “So, you don’t mind it being here? I mean, it’s a party about you, so I guess you can pick…” he said Harumi smiled weakly. ‘I don’t have a bad attitude… I just had a lot of training-“ “Cloud, I don’t want to eat this green stuff. Where’s my ice cream? Why won’t you let me play with your guns? I hate this! How come I can’t go outside at night? Why won’t you teach me to drive?” Yuffie laughed and whined with another excuse every time Harumi tried to cut in. “Okay, so I wasn’t the most positive-“ she paused hearing the word stubborn. “Stubborn… You think I’m… stubborn?” she asked Lillie, it seemed to be more important. Yuffie smiled and glanced at Lillie, preparing to hold back a laugh in case she lied.

Tatsuya looked to his brother with that, wondering if he really knew what he was talking about. He haden't known him long, but long enough to know he was nothing like himself. But he didn't mind that matter. Raidon looked up at Samuel, "Making me do? Are you resting this whole thing on my shoulders perchance?" He asked a bit confused as to why all of this was going towards him now. It seemed Samuel was back to his normal evil self.
Lillie listened to the two bickering back and forth but she grinned when Harumi heard the stubborn part. She looked over at her and nodded once, "Nothing against you hun, but Raidon always did ad mit its tough for him to get you to do anything that you wouldn't normally do." She shrugged, "I never thought you were, always acting tough or whjatnot, I just figured it was how you were, you seem to calm down a bit when he's around though. More shy.. if you will perhaps more girlish." She smiled. "I love you either way hun."

((x3 lol Tatsuya’s Harumi’s dad. *pokes* Still it’s kinda cool you remembered it.))
Samuel glanced over at Raidon craftily, “No we’ll take care of things as long as you go along with… well, everything…” he said bursting into laughter that he quickly forced silent by hiding his face in his arm. “Trust me, it’ll be fun! I promise! And it’s be cool so Harumi won’t get mad or anything like that…” he said writing down on his paper. “Five seconds to answer, right Tadashi…?” he asked, testing his allegiance now. Samuel never had a partner in his antics but Tadashi was important here, he needed to know if he was with or against him. Harumi blinked and blushed as Yuffie laughed anyway. She rolled around in Potatoe’s feathers until he warked at her to stop. “Told you so…” she said staring up at the ceiling of the carriage. “Right, well on that note can we go over the things we need to look for? I mean, there’s the cake, dresses, decorations…” she paused hearing Yuffie giggle to herself, “…and the place right? I haven’t really thought about that much. But I kind of wanted I to snow… still, then we’ll all be cold huh?” she asked, letting the dilemma take control of her thoughts so not to think about the realization of her personality traits.

(Le gasp... i've got the name in my brain.. my bad.. lol But I thought Harumi killed her father?)
Raidon nodded absentmindely, "I suppose I can't disagree on the matter then, so long as everyone is happy." He said, not being too fond of the matter when Harumi was upset with him. It was odd enough that she was acting weird. He had yet to get a straight answer out of her on the whole taking over business. But he assumed that would come in due time. Tadashi smiled as he looked to Samuel, "Of course.. I think everything will be just fine." He said with almost a grin now.
Lillie giggled to herself, "Sorry Harumi, but aside from picking everything out, everything is under control. The invatations are already set and set out, the date and time are ready, the cake willl be ready as soon as we choose it. And well.. I've got it all under control. Your just here to help make sure everything is the way you want it to be." She reached over to place a hand on hers, "Relax hun, this shoulden't be stressful for you." She smiled.

Samuel folded up his papers and stood. "Good, now that everything's settled with that let's be serious for a moment." he said as if they'd goofed off the entire time. He sighed and looked at Raidon. "How's that curse of yours getting along? Remember, Cloud still remembers you that way. You need to change before he and the wedding gets here." he said, as if his playfulness had faded away. “And Tadashi, as I’ve accepted you as my partner in crime I have to be sure that you can fight. Cloud and his friends are tough and scary! You need to be bold if they tease you! And if any dragons, spirits, or upset memories should appear uninvited, Raidon, Lillie and Cloud will be busy which means you, me, and the castle guards will be making sure no one interrupts. So go all out!” he said, suddenly excited again. He blinked and settled down a bit. Harumi nodded solemnly before responding, "So then, where is it?" she asked. Yuffie watched for a while before poking at her Chocobo. "In other words don't worry about it Harumi. Geez, it's not the wedding that counts anyway. You should worry about falling while you walk down the aisle, or maybe messing up on your vows. Or worse, Bear throwing Raidon a bachelor party!" she blinked, wondering if that sort of thing would even happen. "Hey are we there yet?" she asked.

Raidon sighed, the stupid curse, it had acted up only about a week ago. they had yet to find some way to cure it, his father had scolded him on the matter assuming they had asked his uncle before they killed him. But they had no such luk. he looked away as Tadashi perked up, "That matter is being looked into, I assume with our allotted time we will have it undercontrol and rid of by the wedding. He had always wondered why it was Raidon and nothing had happened to him. He sighed nonetheless, "On the matter of fighting.." he paused and Raidon looked up wondering how his brother was in the fighting aspect, he always had admitted he wasn't much of a fighter. "I.. I suppose Raidon will have to teach me. I know a bit of magic, but only small things. I assume I won't be of much help without some help before hand." He looked back at Samuel, "This Cloud fellow.. is this a friend of yours? the one who will take Harumi down the asile correct? How does he know about the matter of the curse?" He asked curious, considering it had Raidon down. Before anyone could answer there was a knock at the door and Ryou walked in looking all giddy and happy about something or another.
Lillie smiled, "Well I've not the exact location, but I have it figured to two. The garden in the back of the castle will be wonderful if it's a warm day, and the Ball room will be the fall back place. But an outdoor wedding is always best in my mind." She grinned but before she could say more the carriage had come to a stop. The driver had come around to the door knocking once before opening it, "Queen Lilirara, we have arrived." He said bowing and moving to the side to allow everyone to make their exit. Lillie smiled, "Thank you Wilfred." She said as she looked to the other two and departed beckoning them to follow.

Samuel didn’t notice at first as he always wanted to talk about Cloyd behind his back. “Nope, Cloud is a mean stick in the mud. He doesn’t like goofing off, he won’t let people play with his swords or ride his motorcycle. He’s too quiet and he’s a pain in the-“ he paused noticing Ryouta. “Anyway he saw Raidon about to attack Harumi. After that he was completely against them as a couple so he left. Harumi wouldn’t leave Raidon so there was no way for him to really protect her.” Samuel mumbled as quickly as he could. He thought about it and shrugged. “But I lied and told him Raidon was well again. So he knows nothing!” “The garden!” “The ballroom!” Yuffie and Harumi glanced at each other in a bit of a shock before Yuffie looked away. ‘I mean the garden…” she mumbled quickly following after Lillie. Harumi stopped her. “What’s wrong with you? You know I hate ballrooms!” she mumbled. Yuffie shrugged. “Cloud said something about facing your fears. How was I suppose to know you hadn’t yet?” she asked, glancing up at the store. She blinked and dragged Harumi inside before Lillie noticed they were lagging behind. “Never mind, let’s just try and pay attention.” Harumi said, making sure Yuffie opened the door before walking into it.

Ryou cae in and sat next to Tadashi still grinning from ear to ear, but he was silent until after Samuel had finished talking. "You all still stuck on that curse then?" Raidon looked almost violent towards Samuel at that point, "You told him it was gone!!" He hung his head, "Just great, that limits our time even more!" he was upset but he sighed, Tadashi looked to his father, "What do you have up your sleeves?" He asked as Raidon exploded. "So then Cloud.. hmm... he must have been strict with Harumi around then. I'm surprised she didn't leave his side though. Must be true love." He teased. Raidon glared at him, "You really think someone of Cloud's status would just forget a maniac like myself in one of those fits? I looked like a blood sucker!" He was appauled. "Whatever." he growled, Ryou looked at him, "Ah.. so you are stuck on this matter, I'll have you all know that I may have a solvent for these problems." Tadashi and Raidon looked over at him with wide eyes, "It hasn't even been proven what sort of magic was used in the matter!" Tadashi piped up, but Ryou only grinned.
Lillie was already in the store with a clerk, they were already running around grabbing a dress here and there. Once she noticed Harumi she ushered her into a stall with a handful of dresses, "Yuffie, stay here while I do the running around." She said disappearing again only to reappear with a fe more waiting for Harumi to come out with one on.

Samuel felt a slight shiver of fear as Raidon glared at him. “Well it was either that or he wouldn’t come!” he shouted back. “Don’t yell at me I’m the one who had to lie to him! Do you know what happened the last time I lied to Cloud?” he crossed his arms. “Nothing, but something could have…” he paused hearing Ryouta and his mouth dropped open. “Really? So what do we have to do?” he asked, happy that the subject was changed. And this was excellent news on top of that. Surely his small lie would be forgotten now. Harumi blinked at the number of dresses and picked through the ones she liked and hated. Even still she had a pile of dresses to try on. "Geez." she thought wondering if she'd ever pick one. She quickly tried the first one on and peaked out of the stall blushing. "Um, Lillie, should I come out after I try each one on...?" she asked curiously. She smiled realizing she had a few more. Meanwhile Yuffie looked about in the brides’ maids area. She noticed a few other brides’ maids who were picking out bright floral dresses and sighed. She glanced at one that had shorts and sighed again. "You have to wear this stupid dress. It's Harumi's wedding and you are her friend!" she said putting a dress against her and looked in a nearby mirror. Potatoe fell down and warked with laughter. "Yeah, so shut up!" she shouted, even more embarrassed as it rolled around and ran away.

Raidon didn't look back at Samuel, instead his eyes were focused on his father. Tadashi too was intrigued, but he had a strange feeling it wasn't going to be easy. Ryoutaa looked to Raidon then to the other two. "Inquirinng eyes, looks as if they will eat me alive if I don't tell the secret. i should have figured it out sooner, but assuming this curse was close to the one that he had placed on me then the cure is simple. I was unable to break it for that very same reason. Lillie was scared of me and fled only to save you wto from me.. when in reality it was him.." He shook his head, "Anyways, Raidon I assure you your not going to like this matter, but it seems since the culpriat is dead, there's only one way to fix this matter." Though he knew he was going to get an earful he was still grinning. Raidon looked at hiom more curious now but stayed quiet, Tadashi was the one who spoke then, "Father, are you inquiring that the matter is difficult, or unlikely to happen in the amount of time before the wedding?" he asked looking him over now. "Less Raidon can keep his side under control it can wait until after, but if anything were to happen and he were to act up during the ceremony.. well lets just say his chances of becoming my sucessor are, short to none." He shrugged slightly, "But assuming the matter Raidon may have to wait." Raidon glared at him now, "The sooner the better." he somewhat growled.
Lilie was leaning against the wall with the store clerk with bright eyes as Harumi popped her head around the stall door. "Hun it's up to you, but I think the more we know the more we can make the right choice, but I'm not saying i'll choose it for you. It's your wedding after all, must enjoy it while its here." She said with a grin as she ushered her out, "Well come on dear, let's see what you have." She said with a giggle.

Samuel blinked a bit confused. “Well, if you don’t tell us soon we may as well call the whole thing off I mean…” he paused, seeing as Raidon was already in a bad mood. He wanted to test his temper again but was a bit nervous to do so. “I mean, if Cloud gets here and notices that Raidon hasn’t changed yet… we’ll all wake up one morning and Harumi would have disappeared.” He said, waving his fingers as if to show a magic trick. He didn’t dare look at Raidon and continued. “Still, seeing as you’re all smilie there must be some way to do something. Otherwise you just enjoy stressing Raidon out. It’s quiet fun don’t you think?” he asked, grinning a bit. Harumi glanced at her private mirror before shyly coming out. She held her arm with one hand and pushed her hair back with the other, uneasy. “Okay, so how’s this one?” she asked. Yuffie walked over, hearing her voice. Her face even more scarlet that Harumi’s. “Whoa. That looks pretty. Kind of plain though don’t you think? Can’t really throw a good punch with sleeves on…” she said. Harumi blinked and rushed back inside the stall.” She quickly tried on another dress and threw a punch in thin air. She smiled, content and showed everyone. “Okay then, how’s this one?” she asked, waving a bit shyly to the store clerk.

Ryou sighed looking away now, Tadashi nodded his head, "I thought so, not easily done before the wedding correct." Ryou nodded, "Perhaps it's asking too much of Raidon before hand. Though I'm not too much worried for him that I am Harumi." He shrugged looking back at Raidon who was gapping, so completly confused now that he was speechless. Ryou looked to Samuel, "I assume this Cloud fellow will not like the matter either, I've no idea how Harumi will react, but like I said before, it's more of an after the wedding sort of thing. Tadashi nodded, "Is that really the only way to cure this sort of thing?" Ryou nodded, seeing as Raidon coulden't look more ridiculous he started to explain. "Well you see, everytime he overreacts Harumi's life is on the line, but that being said Harumi is the only thing that calms him back down correct?" Raidon nodded slowly, more of an odd, empty nod. Still not quite seeing where the matter was going as Tadashi looked away shaking his head, "It's impossible, too much to ask before the wedding." He mumbled to himself.
Lillie grinned at Yuffie, "You really think she will be needing to throw punches in her wedding gown? Who do you think she will be needing to beat up?" She asked lifting an eyebrow to question her as she missed Harumi coming out and rushing back in. She sighed but looked back as Harumi was back out looking shy but beautiful all at the same time. She smiled at her, "Harumi, that looks simply beautiful on you." She said walking over to take her hand, spinning her slowly to check it all out. The store clerk nodded slowly, "Honey you look absoluetly devine in that dress." She said and smiled at her.

(( ?-? I'm so confused right now! *rapidly poking* What's going on??? xD Unless your stalling the cure. Dx It hurts, I need to know! *dies*))
Samuel fell silent now. His instincts pick up a bit as he wondered what any of this had to do with Harumi. "Ryouta... what do you mean you're worried about Harumi? You need to run this by me first. If this has anything to do with her getting hurt in any sort of way I don't think we should even discuss it with her." he said stubbornly. "Plus..." he paused thinking about it. "It worries me even more that Cloud would be upset by it." he sighed, thinking about Harumi for a while. She would do anything to help Raidon. And worse, she'd be crushed it they didn't help Raidon because of her. "Never mind... just tell me. I guess... whatever happens is going to happen regardless. Harumi would kill every one of us if we didn't at least try this right?" he said glumly. Yuffie shrugged. "Well let's see... Cloud figures out Raidon's still messed up," she threw a punch. "Next if Joseph comes along...." Yuffie kicked, showing off her training skills. "Caim has an evil ghost, Raidon turns into a vampire, dragons don't approve of the decorations, the world is about to end, her mother comes seeking revenge." Yuffie was fired up, kicking and punching with Potatoe to block in case she misfired and hit something. "The possibilities are endless!" she shouted. Harumi seemed to let go of everything Yuffie had just said. "You guys think so...?" she asked shyly. “You think… Raidon will like it too?” she asked, a faint blush appearing again. She thought about it and blushed harder. “I want to make sure he’s really in awe when he sees me…”
